Temperature-independent magnetic viscosity in ferritin has been observed from
2 K down to 100 mK, proving that quantum tunneling plays the main role in these
particles at low temperature. Magnetic relaxation has also been studied using
the Landau-Zener method making the system crossing zero resonant field at
different rates, alpha=dH/dt, ranging from 10^{-5} to 10^{-3} T/s, and at
different temperatures, from 150 mK up to the blocking temperature. We propose
a new Tln(Delta H_{eff}/tau_0 alpha) scaling law for the Landau-Zener
probability in a system distributed in volumes, where Delta H_{eff} is the
effective width of the zero field resonance.Comment: 13 pages, 4 postscript figure
